REMEMBERING ERIC

I recently had the pleasure of speaking with siblings Mike and Deb Tenvoorde about a first Inaugural Golf Tournament that is near and dear to their hearts, as well as many of their friends, family, and community members.

Golfe FORE Awareness is a golf tournament to help raise funds to help support local resources that highlight the importance of mental health and primarily focus on suicide prevention.

The event is designed to be a fun event to honor the legacy of Deb's son, Eric Tenvoorde, and his mission to help others. Deb talks about her son's experience, struggling with opioid addiction which ultimately lead to his suicide in 2018.
